The Druha Liha 23/34 champions Družba (Myrivka) who were to be promoted, have suspended their pro football activities. One of the promotion playoff winners FC Zvjaheľ have also withdrawn due to the lack of a required stadium in Zvjaheľ. Due to SC Dnipro's bankruptcy, Livyj Bereh (Kyjiv) were additionally admitted to Premier League. The three departed clubs were replaced with both relegation playoff losers (FC Chust and Metalurh Zaporižžja) and the best relegated club (Kremiń).
